Ability to download US Equity data without an active Security Master subscription

Open ArthurAsenheimer opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

I understand the value and necessity of the Security Master dataset. But there are also use cases where it's not required. For instance, sometimes I need higher resolution data (Second/Minute) of a single symbol for only 1-2 trading days. This is mostly for testing purposes or client projects. I certainly know there weren't any symbol events such as splits, dividends etc. on those specific days, so there is actually no need for an active Security Master subscription for that specific case. But unfortunately, it's not possible to download the needed dataset as you can see in the screenshot below.

I don't want to pay $600 annually for a dataset that I don't really need.

Maybe we could just display a warning and still enable users to download the dataset?
